Butcher and little girl

After Mu Dingxiang got up, she hung up the gauze curtain and folded the quilt neatly, and asked Zhu'er, "When did Chu Yu get up?"

"Mother got up before dawn, and left on Xiaobai. Huh, it was still fragrant last night, and it should be smelly when I come back later." Zhu'er expressed her disgust for Chu Yu's occupation .

Chu Yu has been on the battlefield, killed people, and now she is a butcher killing pigs. The hostility in her body is accumulating. This kind of most unspiritual liking will always describe her hostility as stinky.

But Chu Yu is undoubtedly a good person, defending the family and the country, saving the lives of countless creatures. Without her stinky sacrifices, naturally there would be no Zhu'er sitting here, so Zhi Ling loves and trusts her in her heart.

But now it's better, with a fragrant mother to neutralize, Zhu'er feels how happy the future will be.

Thinking of Chu Yu going out to kill pigs early in the morning, Mu Dingxiang suddenly felt that it was too shameful for her to sleep so late, so she quickly packed herself up and prepared to go to the field to grow vegetables.

When I was changing clothes, I realized that yesterday’s tattered clothes were gone, presumably they were thrown away by Chu Yu, looking at the six or seven sets of clothes I bought yesterday, I picked out a blue one with some pain. .

"Mother looks really good in this." Zhu'er didn't hesitate at all for her praise.

Only then did Mu Dingxiang remember that this little thing had been following her all along: "I'm going to farm, do you want to follow?"

"Wherever mother goes, Zhu'er will follow." The little bamboo shoots grabbed her thighs like a leg pendant.

Mu Dingxiang looked at her inexplicably extra daughter, and was a little dumbfounded for a moment, but in this big valley, she was new here, and there was a noisy little thing following her, and she didn't seem to feel deserted and unfamiliar, but she was very happy in her heart.

"Mother, there is pork jerky on the table, it was left by Mother."

Only then did Mu Dingxiang see a large bag of pork jerky on the table, which should have been specially prepared by Chu Yu in case she would skip breakfast.

Mu Dingxiang didn't have the habit of eating breakfast these years, so she didn't take the dried pork. She just walked out the door and remembered what Chu Yu told her yesterday. When you come to the Chu family, you have to have a new habit. You have to have three meals a day. Hot water is needed for bathing, so I came back again, took two and chewed them in my mouth, while looking for a hoe, I took the vegetable seeds I bought yesterday and went out.

It's just growing vegetables, which is not difficult for lilac, and the previous tenants of these lands are very clean, no need to weed, and they can be planted by loosening the soil.

Yesterday, Chu Yu said that the land close to home would be reserved for building a house, and Mu Dingxiang chose a land a little farther away, and started hoeing.

The little bamboo shoot spirit didn't bother her either, she was playing by the field by herself, muttering something, not knowing if she was exchanging secrets with some little flower.

It's just the vegetables I eat at home. I didn't buy many rapeseeds yesterday, but there are a few varieties.

After hoeing the ground, the soil became fluffy after being loosened once. Mulixiang divided a large piece of land into four or five small pieces according to the vegetable types, built up the soil, and picked two half buckets of water to pour the ground carefully. Once again, before starting to sow.

Once the seed is sown, the work is done.

Mu Dingxiang looked up at the sky, wondering if there were any birds here, and whether they would have pecked away the seeds.

Thinking of this, the little bamboo shoot spirit seemed to see her thoughts and said: "Mother, there will be no birds coming, Brother Manteng will drive the birds away."

Mu Dingxiang was stunned for a moment: "Are there any little things like you in this valley?"

"No, only Zhu'er can talk, and it will turn into a small person. The others are the same as before, but they can talk to Zhu'er, and sometimes they can do many things with the help of Grandpa Feng, such as driving Let the birds drive away the big bad guys."

Hearing what Zhu'er said, Mu Dingxiang felt relieved, she didn't want to see tree spirits and monsters running all over the mountains and plains full of valleys.

After Zhu'er finished speaking, she walked to the newly planted field, knelt down and drew something on the ground, and then muttered something.

Mu Dingxiang didn't interrupt it, and didn't ask until it finished reading: "What is Zhu'er doing?"

"Mother, I will cast a spell on these seeds, talk to them, let them grow up quickly, and then mother will have vegetables to eat." Zhu'er looked like he had done a good deed, and puffed out his small chest to get it. A word of praise.

Mu Dingxiang touched its small head and said, "Zhu'er is so good."

But when I think about these plant spirits, as plants, they will eventually become food for human beings. If they are flowers, they will also be picked and put in bottles for people to appreciate. And those fruit trees, their fruits will be eaten by humans in the end. Is it unreasonable for Zhu'er to help her make plants grow quickly and become people's rations?

When she raised these questions, Zhu'er turned her back like a little adult, and put her two small hands behind her. Unfortunately, her hands are too short, so it is difficult to touch them at all. She has a mature look with her belly sticking out. look.

"Mother, you don't understand. The biggest tragedy of plants is that the fruits rot on the trees and no one picks them. Flowers also need someone to appreciate and care for them. Every plant has a corresponding value. The most valuable plants are the saddest."

Then Mu Dingxiang nodded half-understanding, this little thing can understand so many truths, but since Zhu'er said so, she no longer feels guilty.

After all, these plants are my daughter's brothers, sisters, relatives and friends. If I don't make it clear, I just eat them like this, and I always feel guilty.

Just as the two of them were whispering, they heard the sound of horseshoes in the distance.

Mu Dingxiang stood up and looked back, it was Chu Yu who came back.

The horse ran close quickly, and the little bamboo shoot spirit hugged Mu Dingxiang's calf, climbed up her thigh, got into her arms, and said a little unhappy: "Smelly mother is back .”

Chu Yu's eyes were very good, and he saw the little green skirt in Mu Dingxiang's arms at the first sight. After getting off the horse, he grabbed the little thing, patted her little butt lightly and said, "Why did you run out? It's not that you can't!" Did it appear in front of outsiders?"

"My mother is not an outsider, my mother is fragrant, I want my mother to hug me." After speaking, she covered her nose and twisted her body to ask Mu Dingxiang to hug her.

Mu Dingxiang just heard Chu Yu's call as an outsider, and she felt a little hurt in her heart, but when she thought that she had only been here for one night, it was not realistic to want to transform herself into a trustworthy person, so she suppressed the sour feeling in her heart Go down and hold the bamboo.

"Aren't you scared?" Chu Yu threw the small bamboo shoot essence to Mu Dingxiang.

"I was a little scared at first, but I'm not afraid anymore. It's very cute." Mu Dingxiang squeezed out a smile.

"In fact, there are still a small number of monsters and spirits in this world, but they have almost disappeared now. Zhu'er may be the last spiritual plant with spirituality. Just get used to it." Chu Yu explained.

"Well, I'm not afraid. Are you tired of killing pigs today?"

Hearing her sudden question, Chu Yu couldn't help being stunned for a moment. For so many years, no one asked her if she was tired after work was over. Now that she heard such a question, she felt indescribable.

It turns out that someone cares like this, a little bit of warmth and a little bit of peace of mind.

She coughed lightly and said: "I'm not tired, I'll go back and take a shower first, otherwise that Zhu'er will dislike me."

After speaking, he led the horse and walked towards the cave.
